Not a all day strong endurance on this scent, but clean and sexy scent that makes me feel like I'm slipping into a silk robe and very feminine. Would love to have a rollerball of this scent to take with me wherever I go for a touch up! Worth a sniff.

Sensuous Nude EDT is my second Estee Lauder fragrance purchase. I debated a long time between the Sensuous Nude EDP and the EDT. In the end, I decided to go for the Eau de Toilette because I wanted a daily-wear fragrance that would be appropriate for my "signature fragrance" for work weekdays and play on the weekend.

Sensuous Nude, for me, makes me smell very warm of amber and buttered powder. Typically, I do not like powder scents because they remind me of talc, bath time and hospitals. However, this fragrance has a slightly sweeter note that plays very well with the sandalwood and vanilla. Still, when my Sensuous Nude EDT arrived in the mail and I sprayed it, it doesn't smell like the samples I had been spraying for months to deliberate!

This EDT is just not rich enough. The first spray and the following twenty minutes really smell synthetic and of alcohol. I am not sure if it's because the cold temperatures during shipping affected the fragrance or if it's just that I got a dud, but I think I should have gone with the EDP. Sandalwood notes are synthetic in this perfume, which is fine, but I don't want to smell like dry-rub alcohol with vanilla from my kitchen after initial spray.

When this is on your clothes for about an hour or two, you can enjoy the light wafts you get from your spray. However, five hours on, the fragrance almost vanishes.

I will go through this quickly (maybe 12 months), even though it typically takes me 2-3 years to use up 1.7 oz bottles. Due to the price and the lack of 1.0 oz size, I imagine that this may be phased out? I will go back to my previous staple, Burberry Classic for Women. If you enjoy the Sensuous line but want something less cloying, try Sensuous Nude EDT, but if you want more warmth and staying power, go to its bigger sister--Sensuous Nude Eau de Parfum.
